Cinnamon Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I ask because I KNOW I have email - I have sold a few things on EBay & have sent some to myself to check if they are coming through. But I am getting none - haven't for over a day now, which is unheard of for my account, plus my Tesco page is showing that I have none. Just wondered if anyone else on Tesco.net email has had a similar problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 28, 2009 Author Share Posted February 28, 2009 Weirder still. Just called up tesco & it transpires that all my mail has been forwarded to a gmail account....not MY gmail account though I have stopped it from doing this with no problem, but I am a bit suprised & annoyed.... Anyone ever had a problem like this or know what has happened? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Your account has probably been hacked into, change all your passwords and change you eBay settings so emails from their go to your gmail account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 28, 2009 Author Share Posted February 28, 2009 Thats what I have been doing all morning - its 11.45 & I am still in my dressing gown All my ebay stuff goes to my Tesco.net account, then onto my Outlook, & it looks like it was the Tesco.net account that has been compromised, & everything was forwarded to this unknown gmail account. Looking at my gmail, which I never use, there was an unknown email address for replies to go to aswell, possibly in Zimbabwe Passwords now all changed, & luckily I never keep any copy emails in my Tesco.net thingy anyhow. All a bit alarming though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Any email accounts that are not run by the big names (Yahoo!, Hotmail, GMail etc) always seem to be getting hacked into and get lots of spam too. (in my experience that is) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 28, 2009 Author Share Posted February 28, 2009 Fred, would you recommend any alternative to Outlook, just out of interest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
